Wanted to add a coconut cookie to my holiday trays and this recipe appealed to me on a number of fronts. The dough was very easy to make and came together very quickly. Most of the dough went in to the freezeruntill December,I did bake two cookies as testers. Though the batter was very thick but baked up very nicely. The resulting cookie was crispy on the outside and just slightly chewie on the inside. The cookie has a wonderful oatmeal flavor which I just loved -- making it more like an oatmeal coconut cookie. I didn't have much luck getting a lot of coconut to adhere to the outside but quite frankly, there was plenty in the batter so the few strands were just fine and added a really nice decorative touch.
